Sam is a 30 yr old (at least) CAG, we picked him up sunday 12th feb from a very tearful lady she has known Sam his whole 30 yrs with her family and he had lived with her for the past 3 n half years but she felt she was no longer giving him all he needed.
He is quite a bad plucker and has been for a few years and she also seems to think he had forgotten how to talk as once was quite chatty, we have heard the odd word and a lot is said quietly under his breath
we settled him in and soon replaced his petshop seed with Tidymix and a couple brands of pellet which he is happily now eating and choosin over the seed mix.
After talkin to his previous owner and lookin at his behaviour we came to the conclusion HE is more than likely actually a SHE so Sam became Sammie.
She seems willing to except tickles through the bars from all members of our family but shows extra interest in our eldest son yet was said to hate men and actually growl at them but so far we are yet to witness this im alowed in her cage to change bowls and adjust toys without bites though she is yet to show interest in coming towards my hands to be picked up but im sure in time with patience this can be achieved.
After just over a week with Sammi i know she will make a wonderful companion bird she is pleasant and so sweet and its been a real pleasure on givin her a new chance in life xx
